SD57 looking to extend current strategic plan by nearly a year

During Tuesday night’s School District 57 meeting, the Board discussed the current strategic plan, and its expiry.

The plan is set to end June 30th, 2026, with the main concern that it falls too close to the next Board election in October that same year.

Chair, Craig Brennan says the plan is something meant to guide the board, and is presumptuous to create a new plan for a new Board.

“I think it was Trustee Holland that asked about sort of a bridge between the two Boards, and that’s something we’re hopefully going to be crafting a policy about.”

“How to respectfully hand off the stewardship from one Board to another. Right now, we don’t have anything like that. The one Board ends, the next Board starts, and to me, there should be some kind of a transition plan in place.”

The Board unanimously approved extending the end date to June 30th, 2027, with the item to be brought forward by the superintendent at an appropriate 2026/27 meeting to develop the next plan.

Another item discussed during the meeting was a new logo for the School District, and are looking for public feedback through a survey here.
